You may feel a little lost when you first embark upon the great breastfeeding adventure. But here’s the good news: you’ll finally be able to tell right from wrong in the realm of advice that you receive. We’ll cover all your questions and give you the right answers for you to start this special period confidently.
Does breastfeeding damage the appearance of your breasts?
Not necessarily! To help keep your breasts beautiful, make sure you pamper them with suitable care products, on a daily basis. The objective is to stimulate the supporting tissues and avoid the risk of skin sagging, linked to sudden variations in size. When you breastfeed, it is also essential to choose a specific bra that will support your breasts without compressing them.
Do you produce less milk if you have small breasts?
When you think of breastfeeding, old-time images of wet nurses may come to your mind, and these women were always featured with big breasts. Forget about them entirely, and classify them as legends: in reality, all women have approximately the same volume of mammary gland. The size of the breasts has no relation to the amount of milk that can be produced. Lactation mainly depends on your baby's appetite: the more he sucks, the more milk you will produce. Even if your bra is a “small” size!
